American Idiot(s)
Posted by Jill | 6:55 AM

Congratulations to Green Day, the best bad band* in America, for a big win at the preposterously unimportant MTV Video Music Awards.

And to celebrate, Kevin K. shows us some exclusive photos of some REAL LIVE American idiots.

* A great bad band is a band of lousy musicians who still manage to come up with some really complelling music. This is as opposed to a bad great band, which has proficient musicians, and still sucks. Green Day and their granddaddies, the Ramones, are great bad bands. Meat Loaf's Bat Out of Hell is a great bad rock album, perhaps the greatest bad rock album of all time. Steely Dan, however, is a bad great band. I'd rather listen to a great bad band any day.
